November 03, 2013 | 09:49
The talks between the intelligentsia of Armenia and Azerbaijan
may resume.
Ambassador Mikhail Shvidkoy, Russian Federation (RF) President's
special representative and RF MFA special envoy, told the above-said
to Vesti.az.
"I hope that the leaders of the two countries will soon meet and
return to the discussion of that key issue.
"It is possible to hold a meeting with the intelligentsia of the two
countries. But I would very much like for that talk to be productive,
and not a formality.
"At the same time, the result of this meeting should be equal for
both countries," Shvidkoy noted.
In his view, however, it is impossible to evade the adverse reactions
to such talks.
"A great pain has accumulated. There will always be people who will
call the discussants 'traitors of the nation.' [But] we have to think
about the future.
"Every war ends in peace, but this will be at the expense of the lives
of numerous youth. Armenia andAzerbaijan do not have that many more
children to sacrifice on the battlefield," Mikhail Shvidkoy stressed.
